• Above version config works as per my use case.
• But only problem am facing is if a merge any fix|patch|hotfix|bugfix|quickfix to dev it still increments minor version but i want it to increment patch version and for any feature|minor|feat|enh|enhance|update to dev should increment minor version
• So any push to dev branch can increment minor or patch , if source branch is fix|patch|hotfix|bugfix|quickfix it should increment patch and if source branch is feature|minor|feat|enh|enhance|update it should increment minor

May I ask you to create an integration test for this scenario?

[Test]
public void __Just_A_Test__()
{
	var configuration = GitFlowConfigurationBuilder.New.Build();

	using EmptyRepositoryFixture fixture = new("main");

	fixture.MakeACommit();

	// ✔️ succeeded as expected
	fixture.AssertFullSemver("0.0.1-1", configuration);

or

	// ❌ expected 0.1.0-1
	fixture.AssertFullSemver("0.0.1-1", configuration);
}

How can i run this this inside my github workflow ?

I'm not sure if I understood your question correct. But integration tests can be executed as part of a unit test framework. It is good for communication and to ensure that the requestor and the implementer have the same understanding about the problem. In advance integration tests can be used to ensure the feature as part as an automated build process.

See src\GitVersion.Core.Tests\IntegrationTests\ on main branch.

As described in #3815, I try to configure GitVersion to follow the GitFlow strategy with as little human versioning as possible. According to the GitVersion documentation, the hotfix branches must be named with the desired version for the main branch after merge (e.g. if main is on "1.2.0", the hotfix branch should be named "hotfix/12.1").
However, I would prefer to use branch names such as "hotfix/put-out-the-fire" without the need to specify the desired main branch version.
Since @HHobeck asked for an integration test, I tried to create one by copy-pasting. Please be aware that I have absolutely no experience with C#!

[Test]
public void UnversionedHotfix()
{
    using var fixture = new BaseGitFlowRepositoryFixture("1.2.0");
    // create hotfix
    Commands.Checkout(fixture.Repository, MainBranch);
    Commands.Checkout(fixture.Repository, fixture.Repository.CreateBranch("hotfix/put-out-the-fire"));
    fixture.Repository.MakeACommit();

    fixture.AssertFullSemver("1.2.1-beta.1+1");
    fixture.Repository.MakeACommit();
    fixture.AssertFullSemver("1.2.1-beta.1+2");

    // Merge hotfix branch to main
    Commands.Checkout(fixture.Repository, MainBranch);

    fixture.Repository.MergeNoFF("hotfix/put-out-the-fire", Generate.SignatureNow());
    fixture.AssertMajorMinorPatch("1.2.1");
}

To get this behaviour you can use the TrunkBased version strategy as a workaround which will be applied in 6.x.
